The Missing Connection

 

     If you stop for a moment and take a look at all of the things that are wrong with today's society, most of us could probably come up with a great list.  But, if you examine it closely, there is one frightening trend that has occurred that is very disappointing.  

 

    What is it you ask?  Think about it carefully.  As a society, we have lost a sense of personal connection or human connection.  No matter where you may go, you see people preoccupied with their phones or laptops.  Most don't even bother to acknowledge others any more.

 

    No one writes letters or cards.  Now everything is done electronically.  Books and even cards are now becoming electronic as well.  Okay, there is nothing wrong with technology and its vast improvements.

 

   However, when the humanity aspect of society begins to die, it is time to wake up and take notice.  So what can you do?  Let's not let this personal aspect die.  Take the time to send someone a letter or a personal note.

 

   If you need some encouragement, wouldn't you like to receive a beautiful handwritten note that someone took the time to write?  God wants us to have fellowship with one another.  He wants us to show kindness and to be lights of his great love.

 

  There is nothing wrong with technological advancement.  But, in all sincerity, give your technology a rest, at least for a little while.  Go out and smell the beautiful roses!
